Perelman's Invariant, Ricci Flow, and the Yamabe Invariants of Smooth Manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In his study of Ricci flow, Perelman introduced a smooth-manifold invariant called lambda-bar. We show here that, for completely elementary reasons, this invariant simply equals the Yamabe invariant, alias the sigma constant, whenever the latter is non ...

Group Actions On The Sphere And Multiplicity Results For The Cr-Yamabe Equation

open access: yesBruno Pini Mathematical Analysis Seminar, 2015
We will show that the CR-Yamabe equation has several families of infinitely many changing sign solutions, each of them having different symmetries. The problem is variational but it is not Palais-Smale: using different complex group actions on the sphere,

Singular solutions of fractional order conformal Laplacians

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate the singular sets of solutions of conformally covariant elliptic operators of fractional order with the goal of developing generalizations of some well-known properties of solutions of the singular Yamabe ...

Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities on compact Riemannian manifolds and applications

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we extend Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities on compact Riemannian manifolds for dimension $n\ne 2$. As one application, we solve a generalized Yamabe problem on locally conforamlly flat manifolds via a new designed energy functional and

The Yamabe problem on Dirichlet spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We continue our previous work studying critical exponent semilinear elliptic (and subelliptic) problems which generalize the classical Yamabe problem. In [3] the focus was on metric-measure spaces with an `almost smooth' structure, with stratified spaces

Conformal metrics of constant scalar curvature with unbounded volumes

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 131, Issue 1, July 2025.
Abstract For n⩾25$n\geqslant 25$, we construct a smooth metric g∼$\tilde{g}$ on the standard n$n$‐dimensional sphere Sn$\mathbb {S}^n$ such that there exists a sequence of smooth metrics {g∼k}k∈N$\lbrace \tilde{g}_k\rbrace _{k\in \mathbb {N}}$ conformal to g∼$\tilde{g}$ where each g∼k$\tilde{g}_k$ has scalar curvature Rg∼k≡1$R_{\tilde{g}_k}\equiv 1 ...

Generic Properties of Critical Points of the Weyl Tensor

open access: yesAdvanced Nonlinear Studies, 2017
Given (M,g)${(M,g)}$, a smooth compact Riemannian n-manifold, we prove that for a generic Riemannian metric g the critical points of the function 𝒲g⁢(ξ):=|Weylg⁢(ξ)|g2${\mathcal{W}_{g}(\xi):=\lvert\mathrm{Weyl}_{g}(\xi)\rvert^{2}_{g}}$ with 𝒲g⁢(ξ)≠0 ...

Kodaira Dimension and the Yamabe Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The Yamabe invariant Y(M) of a smooth compact manifold is roughly the supremum of the scalar curvatures of unit-volume constant-scalar curvature Riemannian metrics g on M.

Invariant surface area functionals and singular Yamabe problem in 3-dimensional CR geometry

open access: yes, 2017
We express two CR invariant surface area elements in terms of quantities in pseudohermitian geometry. We deduce the Euler-Lagrange equations of the associated energy functionals. Many solutions are given and discussed.

Stability Analysis of Nondifferentiable Systems

open access: yesStudies in Applied Mathematics, Volume 154, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Differential equations with right‐hand side functions that are not everywhere differentiable are referred to as nondifferentiable systems. This paper introduces three novel methods to address stability issues in nondifferentiable systems.
